Hypnosis for Sports and the Performing Arts
Performers and athletes face unique challenges. Their talent and ability is put to the test in the present moment and often in front of a large audience. Fear of judgment from spectators and self-doubt about one’s ability can cause anxiety and hinder their performance or competitive edge.

Are you a casual athlete, on a high school team or a pro?

Whichever your sport, be it tennis, golf or running marathons, you want to do your best whether you’re a pro athlete or a casual community league player.  In almost all sports, the player or team with the psychological edge has an advantage. 

Conditioning your mind in sports training can be just as important as physical conditioning. Many professional athletes achieve excellence in their sport with the help of hypnosis. From off season to game-day, hypnosis can yield positive results in your game.

Are you an artist, singer, actor or musician?

Performing on stage is very similar to sports performance. The pressure of an audition or being on stage in front of an audience can give rise to questioning your ability. Nervousness because of self-doubt will impact your execution.  Many singers, actors and musicians struggle with creative blocks, forgotten lines or lyrics, and even stage freight. With the help of hypnosis, you can get past your fears, the negative effect it has on your performance and develop an appreciate for the process of your creativity. Achieve confidence and command on stage with Creative Life Hypnosis.

Hypnosis helps you focus on performance

In sports and the performing arts, your greatest asset is your mind. Imagine that your mind is like an iceberg. The part we see above the water – the conscious waking mind -- is only 10%. The other 90% is what we can't see … our subconscious.

How much of your mind power are you using? Learn how to access the incredible ability you have below the surface.

In sports, when everything seems to go just right, you are "in the zone." With hypnotherapy, you can be "in the zone" more often and on purpose. 

What hypnosis can do for athletes and performers

Hypnosis can access the door to the subconscious mind. Through imagery and relaxation a player or performer can direct their mind to prepare for success and project a future outcome of victory. Athletic and artistic performance is also guided by many factors including internal unproductive self-talk, unwanted habits instilled over the years, and nervous reactions under pressure.  An experienced professional hypnotist knows how to remove old established negative programming and beliefs that often times block success.

Key elements of using hypnotherapy for performance:

Visualization and guided imagery -- Many people interested in sports and the performing arts use hypnosis for visualization and guided imagery training.  Imagine the possibility of  a performance well done! Include hypnosis as part of your practice, and you will attain a mental workout.
Golfers improve their game and become more enthusiastic about getting on the golf course.   Singers are able to step on the stage and perform with focused energy.

Be more focused and calmer – The best performers know how to learn from mistakes rather than getting caught up in the emotion of frustration. Whether you miss a shot in golf or forget your next line or lyric on stage, you have the ability to recover gracefully and focus on the goal. This is what “performance under pressure” is all about … fighting through obstacles to achieve greatness. Creative Life Hypnosis will help you reset your habitual reactions to challenge and gain courage in spite of frustration or disappointment. Let your creativity and ability flow!

Reduce anxiety and eliminate inner chatter – The human brain is unbelievably complex, and your conscious thoughts often get in the way of executing practiced skills. Creative Life Hypnosis will help you tap into the power of your subconscious mind to eliminate the negative self-talk, doubt and anxiety so that the result will be a positive dynamic performance.
